He held my hand and searched Through my eyes what was wrong and What was making me scared. I didn’t doubt his affection; it was My first time to be noticed. I am innocent, and he wasn’t.
II. Afecto
Spent Friday afternoons eating together At a cheap place, smoked and puffed The same cigarette and rode the MRT Holding each other like lovers, We were someone else. We knew We had a certain something.
III. Amor
Kissed and ate and went to the carnival On our very first week of being one. He touched my waist, he stared at me and He held my hand like we will Never have tomorrow. He was happy And I was becoming uncertain if he would Be staying around for me, and for this.
IV. Lujuria
My tongue inside his mouth, breathing As fast as I could remember. We danced on His bed and we looked at each other With so much hope we would do this as Many times as we can. I was under his spell; He inserted what I was scared of before. It felt good but painful; it felt like I was Going to live eternally.
V. Frialdad
Gone for a week or so, I was mourning Night and day, I thought he was away and He left me without a word. Never Did I imagine after what happened Would be like this: cold, alone and Used up by him.
VI. Solo
Like snow in the beginning of summer, He melted away. Where could he be? Will he ever come back? After all that we have done, he Surrendered without a reason. Is it fair? The world isn’t, And so is his love.
VII. Embarazada
My tummy is swollen and I am in agony. This little angel Caused by uncertainty would Be my biggest mistake, Without a father, Without a home, Without a relative of my own. I was rejected, should I let go of this? Or should I keep it with me? A woman without a name, Spending her entire life thinking Of what must have been done right.
